Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. -- C S Lewis

Champions of Common Sense

On this blog we often highlight those in Parliament who are actively seeking to destroy our civil liberties, our freedoms, and our economy by their support for plain packs. In this post, however, we list the Parliamentarians who oppose plain packs. The majority of the list below is taken from the open letter that dozens of MPs signed in June 2012 -- these do not have links following their names. All other additional MPs will have links to the articles, web sites or tweets confirming their opposition to plain packs.

This page will be updated frequently without notice. It is perma-linked under Common Sense Champions in the menu bar above. Please feel free to leave a comment with links to any MPs who do not yet appear on the list. Thanks!

Copyright Notice: Although the contents of this list are taken from statements or signed letters in the public domain, this list is NOT in the public domain. I researched it (or others kindly provided links); I created it, and I own it. Therefore, any person, organisation or governmental entity who works on behalf of the tobacco control industry at large (including but certainly not limited to universities, the mainstream press and media, the NHS, BHF, CRUK and ASH) and any person, organisation or entity (including the entire country of Australia) who supports plain packs, must NOT use this list for any purpose, including but not limited to copying this list, modifying it, linking to it via any other web site or internet service (e.g. Twitter), printing it, nor may you link to this page or reference it in your evil wiki of shame (Tobacco Tactics) or do anything at all with it without my express permission to do so.

In other words, make your own damn list, tobacco control industry. You get paid with taxpayer money to promote your hateful, hurtful agendas against smokers. I, on the other hand, do not receive any funds from anyone. Seriously, I don't.
